You don't need Varane and Ramos to keep Ibra out. He is gobshite against big teams. He doest even make an effort to do anything.
I'm not Zlatans biggest fan, but that's not true. He has scored against Madrid, Inter, Bayern, Germany and name a few teams...
The biggest criticsm towards him is that the Swede has only scored 6 goals during the knockout phase in Champions League, even though Zlatan has played in the tournament for 14-15 years. An awful stat from someone who's claimed to be one of the best players in the world and was/is the main star for some of Europe's best clubs through his carrier.

PSG : Ibrahimovic crystallized tensions
After his bad game against Real Madrid yesterday in Champions League, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is under fire from critics. The Swede is losing his influence on and off the pitch. Decryption of a problem.
A player on the decline
Zlatan Ibrahimovic advocates will say that the Swede already scored six goals in Ligue 1, with 2 penalties. However, the Parisian has not scored a single goal in the Champions League this season. In the pitch, the content of his matches disappoints more and more. Former PSG coach Carlo Ancelotti says that Ibra did not want to play the position of center forward true number 9. The positioning of Ibra is destabilising the tactics of the PSG. When Ibra leave his zone and set at a number 10 position, Paris no longer has any striker in the area if not Edinson Cavani. And when the latter is in the area, Paris is sometimes in danger on attacks against Maxwell finding himself alone on the left. A situation that also destabilises coach Laurent Blanc even though he does not want (can not?) send Ibrahimovic out of the team for now.
A status of "untouchable" less accepted the club
The more time passes, the statue Ibrahimovic crumbles in the PSG. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is out of contract next summer. Except turnaround, he should leave Paris. As every player in his last year of contract (especially late career), the question of its performance and its investment arises. Edinson Cavani does not even hide his unease in the locker room. His relationship with Ibra is very cold. For several months, the Uruguayan can not stand to play left and takes his misfortune patiently waiting for the departure of Ibrahimovic. « Some players are starting to have trouble with his behaviour, says a close to the locker room. When he was the boss, he was faultless in the field. Now, he is becoming an average player like any other, from what we see of his performances on the pitch. The feeling that some have is that Zlatan anaesthetised Cavani and Di Maria. »
A shared situation with the technical staff with a hint of regret. « Laurent can't do anything with Ibrahimovic. He knows that he must get out yesterday, of course. After, it must be supported by the whole club in his choices » concedes with an edge of irritation a source close to the staff. Zlatan who stressed the importance of this game to its partners before the meeting, disappointed and even irritated some of his teammates after his performance yesterday.
He does not want to talk to the French media
Often submitted to criticism of his state of form and his inadequate intake for the Parisian game, Zlatan Ibrahimovic drive another unwell: with the French press. Last night after the draw against Real Madrid, the Swedish striker did not respond to the microphones of French journalists, snubbing them to book his responses to the international press. This is not the first time that Zlatan does so. According to his entourage, the PSG star does so because he believes that French journalists do not understand his game.
